    Steerable Directional Listening for Individuals with Unilateral Hearing Loss
    (SLIIT, Faculty of Engineering, 2024-10) Wimalaratne, U.A; Seneviratne, L; Malasinghe, L
    A novel hearing aid design which incorporates 3 separate phased arrays with a digital signal processor running an adaptive beamforming algorithm, Generalized Sidelobe Canceller (GSC), providing the user with the capability of effectively focusing their listening to a certain source while suppressing any masking interference sources. The proposed phased array achieved an array directivity of 7.93dB with a half power bandwidth of 35.20º. The GSC and the phased array designed, when simulated, was able to achieve a SINR improvement of 9.72dB under strong noise levels and a 2.55dB SINR improvement under low level noise which were located spatially close to the desired source.

    A Multifunctional Communication System for Differently Abled People
    (Sri Lanka Institute of Information Technology, 2023-03-25) Gunaratne, K.M.S.T.; Senanayaka, V.P.; Walakuluarachchi, E.I.; Malasinghe, L
    A person should be able to connect with other people to have a fulfilling life. Having challenges such as being blind, deaf, or mute is a significant concern in this matter. According to world statistics and research, it has shown that 0.2% of the world’s population lives with severe deaf blindness. This project aims to design and develop a communication system to improve interactions between a person without any disability and a deaf-blind person or between two deaf-blind people. Each may communicate differently, so this system will have a textual display for those who can see, a speech output for those who can hear, and a tactile braille display for those who cannot see or hear. This system can benefit educational institutes and care homes facilitating people with the above disabilities. The primary purpose of this system is to make the differently abled people feel independent and confident by seeing, hearing, and talking to each other without facing the barriers in the translation.
